Hálslón Reservoir
The Hálslón Reservoir is a storage reservoir in Eastern Iceland on the Jökulsá á Dal River. The reservoir stores water for use in hydroelectricity production with the Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Plant. The reservoir was formed by three different concrete-face, rock-fill embankment dam dams; the Kárahnjúkastífla Dam, the Desjarárstífla Dam and the Sauðárdalsstífla Dam.
==Dams==
The Kárahnjúkastífla Dam is 193m tall, 730m long and straddles the river. It is made of 8.5 million cubic meters of material making it the largest dam of its type in Europe. Construction on the dam began in April 2003 and was completed in November 2006. The Kárahnjúkastífla Dam does not create the reservoir alone as the dam is higher in elevation than two valleys that flank the river valley. To create the desired level, axillary or saddle dams were built. The 60m tall and 1,000m long Desjarárstífla Dam is adjacent and to the east of the Kárahnjúkastífla Dam. The Sauðárdalsstífla Dam is 4 km to the southwest, 25m tall and 1,100m long. Both auxiliary dams were built between April 2004 and October 2006. The reservoir began to fill in September 2006.〔(Key Figures of the Kárahnjúkar Hydroelectric Project )〕〔(The Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Project Overview )〕
Water used for hydroelectricity production in the reservoir is discharged in the Jökulsá í Fljótsdal River to the northeast.〔
